Why won't Germany provide Ukraine with better weapons? | Ukraine War

Sky News military analyst Prof Michael Clarke looks at why Germany is so reluctant to provide Ukraine with long-range state-of-the-art missiles.

Such weapons would allow Kyiv to inflict more significant losses on Russia, including hitting the strategically crucial Kerch Bridge, which links Crimea to the Russian mainland, Prof Clarke said.

As a German I can say: Our government is a mess.

that's rich from a country that sits on its island twice the distance from Russia that hasn't even provided half as much aid as Germany....

The eastern portion of Germany seems to have memory problems with how it was under Soviet rule.

Germany has given nearly $25 billion in aid + another $20 billion with its share of EU commitments, compared to the U.K. which is at $17 billion. Just because it hasn’t donated a particular missile is no reason to criticise Germany.

There is a small Bavarian town called Schrobenhausen. It produces the best white asparagus in the world. And also Taurus. Their CEO stated that until now they have not received any orders for new production. If Scholz really wanted they can supply them. Until he gets told by Biden to move, white asparagus will have to do.

This is a really unfair title to the videos since Germany has aided Ukraine more than any other nation during the last 6 months. If I was German, I would be pretty annoyed. People just think about Taurus and forget everything else.

Germany knows that storm shadow not pointy enough

Helping them WIN is much cheaper than helping them NOT LOSE. The idea that dusting the bridge is ESCALATORY is ridiculous.

Because post WW2 Germany has become an impotent player in Europe

[KateFino]

germany is very reluctant and quite afraid to supply ukraine with better weapons and long range missiles so as not to anger putin and hit back on germany

[norsenomad]

Excellent presentation of knowledge by professor Clarke, again!

[maneshipocrates]

Lots of pootin whisperers in Germany for years. Germany is always on the wrong side of history,

[econ]

Last time Germany went against Russia, it didn't end well. So Germany is extra careful now

Rusia tiene un buen líder y bueno periodistas 😎🇷🇺🎉🎊

Why don't we see Boris Johnson in the trenches??

[dirtyharry]

Germany provided the most aid in Europe.
Italy / Spain hiding in the corners

[wolfgangdurst]

what a dumb question! We delivered 3 Patriot Systems for Ukraine's air defense. Patriot Systems are one of the best modern weapons. This is simply Germany bashing which I can't take serious.

Schultz is to Germany what Chamberlain was to Britain in 1938

[billwhite]

Germany of all states should recognize the benefit they are giving Russia. The gift of appeasement, and time.
